Hoping by Shirley Hughes


Hoping

Grey day,
     Dark at four,
      Hurry home, 
       Shut the door.
         Think of a time
               When there will be 
   Decorations
On a tree, 
   Tangerines, 
                And hot mince pies, 
              A bulging stocking,
                  A Christmas surprise. 

                           --Shirley Hughes 

                            Out and About
